Verse 1:
G5 F5     Eb5
Oh play along, she wills it
G5   F5      Eb5
  Oh Sunday came, Promised you'd tell her
G5    F5         Eb5
  She sat up in bed, Answered your call dear
G5        F5          Eb5
  Smeared purple and red


Chorus 1:
Bb5                       G5
You're gonna leave her tonight
                    F5
She sat up with her eyes wide
                        Eb5
You fell in love with a girl you knew and you've come to say goodbye
Bb5                         G5
  You're gonna leave her tonight
                F5       Eb5
Under a cheap July sky, Tell her, tell Mary


Verse 2:
G5 F5       Eb5
Af-ter the first touch, Her skirt boring
G5          F5        Eb5
  Her voice deep and charming at first
G5                        F5                   Eb5
  You could make her come back once in a while, If you painted a fresco
G5                        F5                      Eb5
  There she'd be with her powder half falling off, So perfect from far


(Repeat Chorus 1)

Eb5
Tell her to Mary


Bridge:
Bb5             F5            G5             Eb5
Meet me at the pictures Mary, Adam said that he was leaving (x2)
Eb5     F5 Bb5     F5  Eb5
          Bb5
Meet me, Meet me,    you're gonna leave her tonight


Chorus 2: silent to distortion
Bb5                       G5
You're gonna leave her tonight
                    F5
She sat up with her eyes wide
                        Eb5
You fell in love with a girl you knew, with the girl you knew


(Repeat Chorus 1)


Eb5
Tell her to Mary (x2)
